█║║█ There are events in the history of all countries that have a strong █║║█
█║║█ influence on modern days ways. It is said that the great earthquake █║║█
█║║█ of Lisbon on 1755 caused a whole change on the people of Portugual. █║║█
█║║█ Taking inspiration on the set of events, the Portuguese quintet █║║█
█║║█ MOONSPELL comes with their twelfth album, ô1755ö, using it as a █║║█
█║║█ whole concept to make one of the finest albums of this year. █║║█
█║║█ █║║█
█║║█ The quintet still keeps their same musical personality, the █║║█
█║║█ contrast between the aggressive influences from their earlier times █║║█
█║║█ with the elegant aesthetics of Doom/Gothic Metal. But now, there █║║█
█║║█ are some Wagnerian and Gregorian choirs and excellent █║║█
█║║█ orchestrations, with dissonant moments of the guitars contrasting █║║█
█║║█ with the crescendos of keyboards, the solid work from bass guitar █║║█
█║║█ and drums giving a heavy rhythmic support to each song, with █║║█
█║║█ keyboards using a different approach with classical moments along █║║█
█║║█ with that horror atmosphere from before, and the vocals uses █║║█
█║║█ different tunes of voices, from gothic whispers to harsh screams. █║║█
█║║█ As the album concept is about a historical event of Portugal, all █║║█
█║║█ the lyrics are in Portuguese, so be prepared to use your best █║║█
█║║█ translator for your understanding (and let me tell you, it worth a █║║█
█║║█ try, indeed). █║║█
█║║█ █║║█
█║║█ The sound production as done by Tue Madsen (who worked with bands █║║█
█║║█ as MESHUGGAH, DARK TRANQUILITY, DIE APOKALYPTISCHEN REITER and THE █║║█
█║║█ HAUNTED, to name a few), and he gave used a clean aesthetics to █║║█
█║║█ build the albumÆs sonority. Of course, the aggressiveness is █║║█
█║║█ presented in a dry format with clear tunes, but with some rawness █║║█
█║║█ is present to give the heavy sound of a Metal band. It seems to us █║║█
█║║█ that the band with Tue had a very hard work to do things in this █║║█
█║║█ way, but they did, and the cover artwork was done by Joπo Diogo, to █║║█
█║║█ give the right idea of the concept, the terror and chaos caused by █║║█
█║║█ the earthquake. The fear, anguish, the dismal mix of feelings of █║║█
█║║█ Portuguese people facing such event (according to Seismologists, █║║█
█║║█ the magnitude of the Lisbon earthquake is estimated to reach the █║║█
█║║█ range 8.5-9.0 on Richter scale, with a death toll estimated of █║║█
█║║█ 10000 to 100000 people) is translated with a perfect dark and █║║█
█║║█ aggressive insight by the quintet. █║║█
█║║█ █║║█
█║║█ Songs as the introduction ôEm Nome do Medoö with its introspective █║║█
█║║█ aura and fine work on vocals, the excellent work from bass guitar █║║█
█║║█ and drums on the grandiosity presented on ô1755ö with its wonderful █║║█
█║║█ melodies and very good choirs, the mix between fine melodic moments █║║█
█║║█ with a Gothic aesthetics with very good guitars that fills ôIn █║║█
█║║█ Tremor Deiö, the abrasive weight of ôDesastreö (another great █║║█
█║║█ moment from the vocals) and ôAbanπoö (very good choirs and again █║║█
█║║█ bass and drums are excellent), the heavier and aggressive melodies █║║█
█║║█ of ôEventoö with fine keyboards parts (and it is one of the songs █║║█
█║║█ of the album chosen to become lyric videos), the excellent riffs █║║█
█║║█ and solos from ô1 de Novembroö (filled with very hooking melodies, █║║█
█║║█ indeed), the oppressive atmosphere of the musical prayer adorned █║║█
█║║█ with oriental melodies called ôRuφnasö (another great moments from █║║█
█║║█ the vocals, making a fine contrast with the keyboards, and the █║║█
█║║█ feeling of the song goes from the melancholic rage with to a █║║█
█║║█ desperate beg for mercy), the aggressive and introspective insight █║║█
█║║█ of ôTodos os Santosö (another very good use of the mix of the █║║█
█║║█ bandÆs influence, what results in a hooking and aggressive song █║║█
█║║█ with introspective melodies), and their personalized and sinister █║║█
█║║█ version for an old Pop song from Brazilian band PARALAMAS DO █║║█
█║║█ SUCESSO (a success here on the 80s), called ôLanterna dos █║║█
█║║█ Afogadosö, maybe representing the dead due the tsunami that █║║█
█║║█ followed the earthquake. █║║█
█║║█ █║║█
█║║█ So we can say that MOONSPELL made another great album, and telling █║║█
█║║█ the history of the Lisbon earthquake in ô1775ö, they reached █║║█
█║║█ another level of musical quality. █║║█
